Chapter 415: What a radiant and lively Hong Xiucai
Sun Shan was very excited to see Hanlu again.
Hanlu hugged Sun Shan and shouted, "Shanzi, Shanzi, you're back."
Then he said, "I'm thinner now, thinner than before. It must be very hard to study away from home."
Then he pulled a little kid over, pointed at Sun Shan and said, "Xiatou, call me uncle, this is your uncle."
When Sun Shan went to Changsha to study, he was a very small boy. After not seeing him for three years, he has grown into a sturdy little boy who looks just like Zeng Jiajun.
Xia Tou glanced at Sun Shan, then hid behind Han Lu. He peeked around again, then hid behind Han Lu in fear again.
When Sun Shan saw the fierce-looking Shrimp Head, he was surprised that his personality was different from his appearance and he was so timid.
Finally, I used the candies from Zhangzhou Prefecture to coax the shrimp head out, and it called me uncle.
After having dinner at Zeng's house, Sun Shan returned to "Sun's House".
Hanlu smiled and said, "The house is cleaned every now and then. It's very clean and can be lived in at any time."
The Zeng family invited Sun Shan to stay overnight, but Sun Shan said he was not used to sleeping in a strange bed and insisted on returning to the "Sun House".
Hanlu and Zeng Jiajun sent him back.
Sun Shan thanked her and said, "Thank you for your help, Fourth Sister."
Hanlu quickly shook her head and said, "What do you mean by 'trouble me?' We are all family, don't say such things."
Zeng Jiajun echoed, "Yes, we are a family, so don't be polite. Your father-in-law and mother-in-law must be very happy that you are back. They missed you so much."
Sun Shan also wanted to go home early, but it was too late, so he had no choice but to stay in Huangyang County.
He nodded and said, "I will go back tomorrow. You can come back to Sunjia Village when you have time."
After seeing off Han Lu and Zeng Jiajun, Gui Ge'er saw that the house was very clean and the bed was tidy. He found that there was nothing to tidy up, so he sorted out the local specialties.
Gui Ge'er shouted, "Brother Shan, how many portions should we share with these specialties? Besides meeting Master Hong tomorrow, who else will we meet?"
Sun Shan asked Gui Ge'er to pick out a few and meet relatives and friends early tomorrow morning, and then go home at noon.
Gui Geer agreed and first boiled water for Sun Shan to take a bath and rest early. Then he sorted out the specialties and went to bed.
The next morning, there was a knock on the door. When I opened the door, it was Lixia and Guyu.
The eldest sister Guyu shouted with red eyes: "Shanzi, you are back. When did you come back? You have lost weight, really a lot of weight. Is studying very hard?"
After saying this, she wiped her tears with a handkerchief and looked both excited and sad when she saw Sun Shan.
The second sister Lixia seemed much calmer, but still said with great concern: "Sister, I think the food in Changsha is not very good. Hey, Shanzi, you are thinner and darker than before. Is studying very hard?"
The two sisters pulled Sun Shan to look left and right, and the more they looked, the more distressed they felt.
Sun Shan quickly pulled them in and saw Xiao Guangzai, Xiao Guangnu, and the little crybaby behind them.
He pinched the little faces of the three little kids and said with a smile, "Do you still remember your uncle?"
Xiao Guangzi nodded immediately: "Remember, you are my uncle, and you went to study in another place."
Xiao Guangnv and Xiao Crybaby followed behind and said, "Remember."
As to whether he really remembered it or not, Sun Shan said it didn't matter.
Guyu and Lixia bought breakfast from outside and asked Sun Shan to eat quickly.
Guyu looked at Sun Shan steadily, her eyes still red as she said, "Shanzi, it's great that you're back this time. Dad, Mom, and Grandma will definitely be very happy if they know."
Last night, Sun Shan learned from Hanlu that his parents and grandmother were all fine, and he felt relieved.
He repeated the question again to make sure: "Big sister, second sister, are father, mother and grandma in good health?"
The second sister Lixia nodded and said, "Okay, very good, don't worry. Now that you are back, they will only be better."
After hearing this, Sun Shan felt relieved.
Sun Boming, Su and Huang are all good, and he is in a much happier mood.
After breakfast, Sun Shan visited Mr. Hong, bringing with him some local specialties from Yizhang and Zhangzhou.
When I saw the familiar Uncle Hong, my youthful school days seemed to reappear before my eyes.
Sun Shan said gently, "Uncle Hong, is the Master here?"
Uncle Hong looked at Sun Shan intently, and it took him a while to react. He said happily, "Shanzi, when did you come back? I heard from your father that you went back to Zhangzhou Prefecture, but I didn't hear that you went back to Huangyang County."
Sun Shan followed Uncle Hong into the Hong family's house and said with a smile, "I came back last night and came to visit you today. I haven't seen you for a long time and I miss you. How is everything, Master?"
Uncle Hong was very pleased with Sun Shan's respect for his teacher and said cheerfully, "Good, very good. He also missed you very much and often mentioned you. Not long ago, your father came to see the teacher and they talked about you again."
Sun Shan smiled all the way to the reception room, and soon, Mr. Hong came out.
Sun Shan looked at Mr. Hong carefully and found that he was more energetic than he was three years ago.
What a radiant and energetic Mr. Hong! He hasn't aged at all.
When Hong Xiucai saw Sun Shan, his first words were the same as those of the three sisters: "Ashan, you're back? Why are you thinner and darker than before? Is it because you've been studying too hard?"
Sun Shan quickly greeted Hong Xiucai, and the two sat down.
Sun Shan pretended to complain and said, "Master, you are right. Studying in Yuelu Academy is really hard. The people there are so outstanding. I have been chasing after them but I just can't catch up. Oh, isn't it hard?"
After hearing this, Hong Xiucai laughed so hard that his half-white beard trembled, and said cheerfully: "Ah, there is nothing I can do. Your talent is average, so you have to work hard to catch up. Alas, you have worked hard."
The two looked at each other and laughed.
Sun Shan asked knowingly, "Master, I see you are full of energy and spirit. Did you encounter something happy? Tell me about it and make me happy."
After hearing this, Mr. Hong stroked his beard, and his serious face no longer looked serious at all, but became extremely gentle.
He said happily: "Thank you for the information you sent back. Haha, it is very useful for our school. Our school has produced a second scholar. Haha."
After a pause, Mr. Hong continued, "Not only did we produce a second scholar, but we also produced many students. Haha, now many parents send their children to my school. You have set a good example and made my school more and more famous."
Sun Shan knew that it was because of this incident that Mr. Hong became so energetic.
He is a teacher who loves teaching and is eager to achieve results.
Sun Shan immediately cupped his hands and said with a playful smile, "Congratulations, Master. I am so happy. Master, you must give me a big red envelope."
Mr. Hong rolled his eyes at Sun Shan and refused to give it to him, saying that if he wanted to give it to him, he would wait until the New Year.
Because I was in a hurry, I chatted with Hong Xiucai for a while and then left. Then I went to Guyu's house and Lixia's house.
As for his aunt's house, Sun Shan had no intention of going there.
At noon, his personal coachman, his second brother-in-law Zheng Hongyuan, drove a ox cart to take him back to Sunjia Village.
Sun Shan quickly said no, but he couldn't resist the Zheng family, so he thanked them and said, "Second brother-in-law, thank you for your help."
Zheng Hongyuan quickly said, "It doesn't matter if it's a bother or not. We are all family, so don't be polite."
